The Socialism Conference is a four-day conference bringing together thousands of socialists and radical activists from around the country to take part in discussions about social movements, Marxism, abolition, working-class history, and the debates and strategies for organizing today.
Every year, the Socialism conference aims to be a place where activists can share lessons from their struggles—from the BDS campaign for Palestine to the fight for gender liberation, from strike organizing and support to the struggle to stop the destruction of the planet, the fight against racism, and more.
Socialism 2026 took place in Chicago over Labor Day weekend, Sept. 4-7. Recordings from many sessions at Socialism 2026 will be released here. Learn more: socialismconference.org
Migrant Sex Workers Against Fascism: Lessons from 150 Years of Resistance
Chanelle Gallant, Elene Lam, Emi Koyama, and Yves Tong Nguyen speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025.
Travel bans, ICE abductions and deportations of green card holders are nothing new for migrants in the sex industry. But their lives and struggles also offer us a blueprint for resisting surveillance, criminalization and the “good immigrant” vs “bad immigrant” division. Instead they inspire us to transform fear and uncertainty into creativity, power, empathy and noncompliance.
The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, September 4-7, 2026. Learn more about the Socialism Conference at www.socialismconference.org.

Bottom Up for Liberation: An Anti-Imperialist Strategy for our Movement
Sal Ami, Rebecca John, Carl Redwood, and Sara Roschdi speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025. This session was sponsored by Bottom Up for Liberation.
We are an emerging cadre formation of social movement leftists, growing out of the LeftRoots process. Too often internationalism is an obligatory footnote to local and electoral struggles--but for us, anti-imperialism is essential to our daily and long-term work to win ecofeminist socialism, from our communities to the world.
